The test was the final for a course. I remembered waiting anxiously as my teacher Mr. Right passed out our papers one by one. It was a rather difficult
test. I heard my classmates groaning, and I could tell by the groans that the
scores weren’t looking good.
Mr. Right put my paper on my desk. There in big red numbers, circled to
draw attention, was my score, 55!
I lowered my head, and covered the score up quickly. A 55 is not
something that you wanted your classmates to see. “The scores were not
very good, none of you passed,” Mr. Right said. “The highest score in the
class was a 55.”
A 55. That’s me!
Suddenly my sad look didn’t look so bad. I had the highest score. I felt a lot better.
I walked home alone that day with the low but high score. My father knew that I had a big test that day and asked me as soon as I got home, “How did
you do in your test?” “I made a 55,” I said.
A frown(皱眉) now stood on my father’s face. I knew I had to explain
immediately. “But Dad, I had the highest score in the class, ” I proudly
stated. I thought that explanation would make a difference. “You failed!” my father replied. “But it’s the highest!” I insisted. “I don’t care what scores others had, but you failed. What matters is what you do!” my father
firmly said.
For years, my father was always that way. It didn’t matter what others
did, it only mattered what I did and that I did it excellently.
We often don’t understand the wisdom(智慧)of good parents until
we ourselves stand in the parents’ shoes. My father’s words have carried me throughout life.
B. laughing
C. complaining
D. quarreling
B. covered my score up
C. walked home alone
D. explained immediately
B. I gave a good excuse

D. I stood in his shoes

My teenage son Karl became withdrawn after his father died. As a single parent, I tried to do my best to talk to him. But he didn"t talk anything with me and even with others. When his report card arrived during his junior year, it said that he had been absent 95 times from classes and had six failing grades for the year. At this rate he would never graduate. I sent him to the school adviser, and I even begged him. Nothing worked. One night I felt so powerless that I got down on my knees and prayed. "Please God, I can"t do anything more for my son. I"m at the end of my rope. I"m giving the whole thing up to you." I was at work when I got a phone call. A man introduced himself as the headmaster. "I want to talk to you about Karl"s absences." Before he could say another word, I choked up(哽咽) and all my disappointment and sadness over Karl came pouring out into the ears of this stranger. "I love my son but I just don"t know what to do. I"ve tried everything to get Karl to go back to school and nothing has worked. It"s out of my hands." For a moment there was silence on the other end of the line. The headmaster seriously said, "Thank you for your time", and hung up. Karl"s next report card showed a surprising improvement in his grades. Finally, he even made the honor roll. That year, I attended a parent-teacher meeting with Karl. I noticed that his teachers were surprised at his great progress. On our way home, he said, "Mum, remember that call from the headmaster last year?" I nodded. "That was me. I thought I"d play a joke but when I heard what you said, it really hit me how much I was hurting you. That"s when I knew I had to make you proud." | ||||||||||||||

阅读下面两篇短文,根据短文内容,选择最佳选项。 A 10-year-old boy decided to study judo (柔道), although he had lost his left arm in a car accident. The boy began lessons with an old Japanese judo teacher, Mr. Tanaka. The boy was doing well, but his teacher had taught him only one move in three months of training. "Mr. Tanaka," the boy finally asked, "shouldn"t I be learning more moves?" "This is the only move you know, but this is the only move you"ll ever need to know," his teacher replied. Several months later, Mr. Tanaka took the boy to his first tournament (锦标赛). The boy won his first three matches, using his one move to win. The boy was now in the finals, and was amazed by his own success. This time, his opponent (对手) was bigger, stronger, and more experienced. The referee (裁判) wanted to stop the match. "No," the teacher insisted, "let him continue." Soon, his opponent lowered his guard. At that moment the boy used his move to pin (钉住) him. The boy won the match and became the champion. On the way home, the boy and his teacher reviewed every match. Then the boy asked what was really in his mind. "Mr. Tanaka, how did I win the tournament with only one move?" "You won for two reasons," his teacher answered. "First, you"ve almost mastered one of the most difficult throws in all of judo.
